Lake Constance

Last 2 nights spent at Waldshut on the Rhine. One night in Switzerland convinced us that it was time to abandon the EV6 and cross the river to Germany where the prices won't cripple our bank accounts. Germany seems most reasonable at £3.20 for two coffees and an evening meal including beer and sweet £12.50 so hardly worth cooking.
Passed the impressive Rhine falls at Schaffhausen then along the young river to Lake Constance said to be the soul of Europe!
So....tomorrow its round a bit of Lakeside then strike up north towards the Danube...our third and last major river.

Yes, the Swiss franc has become a safe haven in these stormy times. Good move to retreat to the Eurozone!

Shame you had to give up on Switzerland, such a beautiful country. I remember my various trips there in the seventies with much nostalgia.
We are thinking of you both,
